Effective preservation of liver grafts is the first essential step for successful liver transplantation. Insufficient perfusion leads to ischemic-type biliary lesions after transplantation. Perfusion of the graft can be performed either in situ or ex situ, with gravity flow or pressure-controlled. Mainly University of Wisconsin (UW) and histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate (HTK) solutions are use...

Target Audience: Radiologists and MRI scientists engaged in functional liver imaging. Purpose: The human liver has a dual blood supply that comes from the portal vein and hepatic artery. The contributions from each are altered predictably in many diseases, including primary and metastatic liver tumors, liver cirrhosis and hepatic-renal syndrome(1, 2). Because most liver pathologies affect blood...

The aim of this work is to evaluate diagnostic value liver non-contrast perfusion in prediction visceropathies (sialadenitis and hepatic encephalopathy) patients with diffuse diseases (DLD). Clinical laboratory data (including the Raitan test), results MRI MR (ASL-perfusion) brain assessment head neck soft tissues were estimated a group DLD. Potentials ASL for encephalopathy sialadenitis are de...
